Hutton report confirms it was Colonel Mustard with a dagger in the library

The Hutton inquiry, which was set up to investigate the circumstances of the death of Dr Black at his house last year, has been published and concluded that it was Colonel Mustard with a dagger in the library.

A number of unanswered questions remain, however. Up to nine witnesses have attested to seeing Reverend Green shoot Dr Black with a revolver in the billiard room and seeing bloodstains over the carpet. Others have pointed to laboratory tests showing nitro-glycerine on Green's hands and a bullet hole in Dr Black's head.

'I couldn't care less, personally' said Professor Plum, who had been named as a suspect on some conspiracy theory websites. 'I have a cast-iron alibi for where I was the whole time: in the lounge, with Miss Scarlett. And the rope. And some lead piping.'
